Fatal Montgomery pedestrian collision death of Quanterious Thompson – Obituary.
The Montgomery Police Department has launched an investigation into a traffic incident that resulted in the death of 24-year-old Quanterious Thompson. Authorities were not informed of the incident until the next day, raising concerns about the communication protocols.
According to Major Saba Coleman, a spokesperson for the MPD, the Accident Division was alerted on Wednesday regarding a pedestrian who had been struck by a vehicle. Officers subsequently visited a local hospital, where they encountered Thompson, who was suffering from severe injuries.
Thompson succumbed to his injuries on Thursday.
The collision reportedly occurred around 6:40 p.m. on Tuesday at the intersection of Norman Bridge Road and East South Boulevard. Coleman noted that 911 dispatch did not inform the police about the incident, despite witnesses calling to report the crash. As a result, no patrol units were sent to the scene.
Fortunately, due to the nearby Montgomery Fire & Rescue station, first responders were able to provide immediate assistance, and Thompson was quickly transported to a hospital for treatment.
Attempts to reach 911’s administrative office for comments on this incident were unsuccessful, as the automated system did not provide an option for direct contact. The MPD operates independently of the 911 dispatch services.
The driver involved, along with the vehicle—a 2006 Mercury Montego—was located on Thursday. The case is set to be reviewed by a grand jury as the investigation continues, with no further details available at this time.
